Dumpling pasta
Gnudi
Quick answer
Gnudi are ravioli filling without the pasta — ricotta and spinach dumplings.
Gnudi means "naked" in Italian.
Best sauces: butter and sage. Match the shape to the sauce — long thin pasta for oil and light sauces, tubes and ridges for chunky or meaty sauces, flat egg ribbons for rich ragù and butter.

Quick answer
What goes with sausage and peppers?
Serve sausage and peppers on a crusty hero roll, over creamy polenta, with orecchiette, or alongside roasted potatoes. Balance the richness with something sharp: a lemony arugula salad, giardiniera, or a glass of Chianti or Montepulciano.
